Patricia sent us this pic, noting:
…saw this spud on the N a few days back. I like to imagine he (yes, it’s a he) is riding the Muni rails in search of his long-lost tomato…
I love how even this tough-skinned ‘tater won’t sit on Muni without a newspaper barrier.
Now, please keep your eyes peeled (HA!) for the Muni-riding hamburger searching far and wide for its sides.
Here’s a few more:
Check out the rest of Jeremy’s photos here. And read about LiveSoma’s E-Embarcadero ride here.
This one I shall eat with a spoon.
Transit-themed costumes showcasing Bay Area pride are par for the course. Even Muni Diaries has been known to make costumes from time to time.
And transit. Let’s not forget transit.
A+ for craftsmanship and awesomeness goes to the corgi repping BART.
A group of 11-17-year-old youth media producers from BAYCAT shot, edited, and produced the movie above. It’s all about SFMTA/Muni.
There’s some fun history from a cable car gripman, and then the movie takes a closer look at the business of getting around San Francisco, for better and for worse.
Kids. These are some of the same kids whose laptops were pathetically stolen last month. BAYCAT, the nonprofit that serves these kids, is hosting a fundraiser to help replace the lost equipment, tonight at Cigar Bar. Help out if you can. RSVP here.

Hey, sometimes you need a break from Cocoon fan parties and diabeetus commercials.
So, we don’t know-know that this is Wilford Brimley, but we enjoy pretending it is. Maybe he can also be the spokesman for taking Muni to Giants games, right?
Thanks for tweeting this to us, @David_Albizo.

LiveSoma took a ride on the newest Muni streetcar line, and wrote about their experience.
I sat at the very front of the car and found the driver, Angel, to be a friendly and great resource for how the waterfront has changed. A longtime resident of San Francisco for over 30 years, he was able to share a magnificent history of San Francisco’s waterfront as we passed the different structures and attractions along the embarcadero. The weather seemed perfect and an ocean breeze drifted into the open windows. The scenic views from the streetcar were lovely and interesting. You could see ships on the bay and colorful and interesting people buzzing about outside.
